Spending Noble with a system-Chapter 13: Parting and Rewards

Henry placed his hand on Lucien and said, "I noticed that your body couldn't produce aura. It looks like your predecessor didn't pass down the correct technique and skills. I'll pass them along with the origin. The origin will allow you to quickly rise to champion and find your way to saint, You can consume it to unleash three saint level attacks to protect yourself. Stay safe, maybe I'll see you in the beyond."

With that, Lucien felt the air shimmer as something bright flowed from Henry and Luna's bodies into theirs. The strong light forced Lucien to close his eyes and when he opened them again Luna and Henry were gone.

The only thing left were Henry's armor which floated to Lucien and Luna's robe which hovered near Luna. frёeωebɳovel.com

Lucien felt a bitter taste rise in his mouth. He didn't want to go through such an experience again.

He looked at Henry's armor and its sun piercing symbol. He would make sure to treasure it. As his hand made contact with the armor, he felt a close connection form between him and the armor. It suddenly turned liquid and flowed around his body, fastening itself onto his arm as a bracelet.

He could feel that he could summon the armor with a thought. The bright sun armor.

Selene followed his example and touched the robe. It too turned into silvery light and flowed into Selene, replacing her previous dress. This reminded Lucien to check her attributes

[Name: Selene]

Lucien's jaw dropped. Selene had breezed past apprentice mage and official mage to become an elite mage. Was that even possible?

She had become impossibly strong. Were all physique's this tyrannical? If so, then he wanted one. Asap. Not to mention the glow up that Selene had gained. Before Selene was really pretty but her main advantage had been her voluptuous figure.

Now Selene was incredibly beautiful. Her silver hair framed an oval alluring face, Her long lashes covered swirling silver eyes that seemed to draw one in if they gazed too deeply.

Her cherry lips were full and pouty, made for kissing and her skin had gained a faint moonlike glow, gentle but visible. Her visible curves had become more defined, her round bottom and smooth waist outlined by the elegant robe. Her She was basically a vision of beauty and grace, throwing Giselle a few streets away. Lucien couldn't help but swallow.

Lucien noticed Selene blush from his staring and hurriedly pulled his gaze from her, coughing a little to hide his awkwardness. The incident reduced the tension and sadness a little.

Lucien proceeded to look through the room, more as a way to find a place to place his eyes than anything, but his wandering gaze froze as he saw something in the wall.

His expression became serious as he made for the cleft in the wall. His heart palpitating in anticipation and nervousness. Inside the cleft he saw two chests placed side by side.

He excitedly removed them from the cleft and placed them on the ground. They seemed to made from a really durable metal. There were no signs of wear and tear on them.

Lucien tried to open one of them, praying to all the deities he knew that it wasn't locked. It wasn't.

Lucien's eyes sparkled with gold signs as he saw the numerous gold coins arranged in the chest. Lucien felt a laugh of joy bubble up his throat which he furiously stifled. It wasn't the right time.

He dint bother to count them, he simply willed them into the system and opened the second chest. Or tried to. The chest was locked and wouldn't budge an inch.

Lucien made a few more attempts before he gave up. He then started to roam around the chamber, looking for more clefts. If there was one why couldn't there be others.

He found another one almost immediately, however there was nothing there but dust. If there had been anything in the cleft, it had clearly decayed into dust. There was similarly nothing in the next few clefts Lucien found. He almost gave up but his luck finally held up in the next one he found. There was a strange metal lying on the cleft.

It looked shiny and bright, as though unaffected by the swift passage of time. Lucien made to pick it up and almost dropped it because of how heavy it was. He managed to barely lift it up to his waist.

Lucien hastily placed it back down and thought of an important question. In the novels he had read, the main character always got an inventory or storage pouch. Where was his inventory? Did his money grubbing system have one?

He willed his system into view, looking for the inventory.

[Inventory: I000 gold coins per m3 ]

Lucien cursed the greedy system soundly. His fellow comrades were given unlimited storage by their systems and he actually had to buy his. Damn that system.

Nevertheless he looked at his wealth and felt confident.

[Wealth: 3000 Gold Coins]

With that amount of wealth he could afford to be a little extravagant. He even felt a sense of being a slight tycoon, looking down on his previous poor self.

He exchanged for 1 m3 worth of space, storing the huge chunk of metal. He had a feeling it was valuable to be placed in this room, and be able last for so long. The rest of the clefts yielded nothing, leaving Lucien a bit disgruntled. Nevertheless he felt it was a good day's work.

He went and stored the unopenable chest in his inventory, causing Selene to widen her eyes in wonder. This made a satisfied feeling sprout in his heart, soothing a bit of his heartache from the loss he made in opening the inventory.
